To investigate the effects of preparation conditions of encapsulating ester compounds on retention rate of core material in microcapsules prepared with sea tangle alginate, the amounts of ester compounds migrated gelling solution (1 M $CaCl_2$) and washing water from microcapsules that were prepared by adding kinds of ester compound, by controlling ratios of emulsifier to ester compounds and by differing ratios of alginates (wall material) to ester compounds (core material) were measured. Also the amount of ester compounds retained in microcapsules was measured. The higher weight molecular of ester compounds were, the lower amounts of ester compounds migrated gelling solution and washing water from microcapsules were, But its amounts retained in microcapsules were increased, The changes of ethyl caprylate amount migrated gelling solution and washing water from microcapsules prepared by increasing ratios of emulsifier to ethyl caprylate were little, but its half-lives in microcapsules during storage at 25$^{\circ}C$ were steeply increased. Increasing ratios of wall material to core material, ethyl caprylate amount migrated gelling solution and washing water from microcapsules showed 1.8$\~$$2.0\%$ and 2.9$\~$$3.5\%$ respectively but half-lives of ethyl caprylate retained in alginate microcapsules were increased.

Using OAuth protocol, third-party applications on the Android operating system use user's credentials or access tokens that have access authority on user's resources to gain user's account and personal information from account information providers. These credentials and token information are stored in the device by the OAuth data management method provided by the Android operating system. If this information is leaked, the attacker can use the leaked credential and token data to get user's personal data without login. This feature enables the digital forensic investigator to collect data directly from the remote server of the services used by the target of investigation in terms of collecting evidence data. Evidence data collected at a remote location can be a basis for secondary warranties and provide evidence which can be very important evidence when an attacker attempts to destroy evidence, such as the removal of an application from an Android device. In this paper, we analyze the management status of OAuth tokens in various Android operating system and device environment, and show how to collect data of various third party applications using it. This paper introduces a method of expanding the scope of data acquisition by collecting remote data of the services used by the subject of investigation from the viewpoint of digital forensics.

Deformation strength($S_D$) is a property which shows relatively good correlation with rut resistance of asphalt mixtures at high temperature. The Asphalt Pavement Analyzer (APA) is widely used as an equipment for estimating rut resistance of asphalt mixtures. The APA was used as corresponding property of the $S_D$ to estimate rutting resistance of asphalt mixtures. Many data were collected to establish the correlation of $S_D$ with APA. For $S_D$ test, the specimen is submerged into the $60^{\circ}C$ water for 30 minutes before applying a vertical load at the speed of 50mm/min to obtain peak load (P) and deformation (y) for $S_D$ calculation. For the same materials, APA test was performed. Relation of the $S_D$ with APA rut depth was evaluated using regression analysis. The $R^2$ value was 0.76, indicating this simple test procedure being a possible method for predicting deformation resistance of asphalt concretes at high temperature. It was also shown that, using the regression model, minimum value(s) of $S_D$ of surface course asphalt mixture or binder course for a particular road level can be determined. The limit values may be possible to use as cut-off value(s) of asphalt mixtures for the layer after further elaborated studies.

A bacterial strain antagonistic to some fungal phytopathogens was isolated from the stem of a Persimmon tree in Yeongam, Korea. This bacterium was identified as Bacillus subtilis by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and designated as B. subtilis GDYA-1. In in vivo experiment, the fermentation broth exhibited antifungal activities against Magnaporthe oryzae on rice plants, Phytophthora infestans on tomato plants, and Puccinia recondita on wheat plants. We isolated one antifungal compound and its chemical structure was determined by mass and $^1H$-NMR spectral data. The antifungal substance was identified as benzoic acid. It inhibited mycelial growth of M. oryzae, Rhizoctonia solani, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, and P. capsici with minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) values, ranging from 62.5 to 125 ${\mu}g/ml$. Moreover, the substance effectively suppressed Phytophthora blight of red pepper caused by P. capsici in a pot experiment. To the author's knowledge, this is the first report on the antifungal activity of benzoic acid against phytopathogenic fungi. Benzoic acid and B. subtilis GDYA-1 may contribute to environmental-friendly protect crops from phytopathogenic fungi.

In 2006, pinewood nematode, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, was isolated from about 50 years old trees of Pinus densiflora and P. koraiensis showing leaf-wilt and -drying symptoms in Gwangju, Gyeonggi-do and Chuncheon, Gangwon-do. Isolation of pinewood nematodes from sapwood of infected pine trees showed no difference in population density between tree species and among the sampling heights on the main stem. Migration of pinewood nematodes in the host tree were investigated by inoculation of red pine (P. densiflora, 3 years old) seedlings with B. xylophilus. The nematodes seemed to move in red pine seedlings prior to multiplication and it might have taken about 20 days to start multiplication and expression of symptoms including wilt and dieback. In initial time after inoculation, nematodes started migration through the cortical resin canal from inoculated site and further showed upward and downward movements. More nematodes were observed in cortical resin canal during early period of inoculation and later in resin canal of xylem and tracheid also while, the pith still remained free from nematode. The density of B. xylophilus was higher in seedlings of low-vigor with poor root growth than in seedlings of normal root growth. Seedlings showing high density of B. xylophilus exhibited stem discoloration and secondary infection by fungus at the inoculation site.

SAGD (steam assisted gravity drainage) process is the most commonly used in-situ technology for the recovery of bitumen from oil sand. It was investigated that the effects of different additives on bitumen recovery rate from oil sand in SAGD process among many possible mechanisms studied throughout the study. Bitumen recovery from thin layer oil sand reservoirs was simulated by using an experimental SAGD apparatus with scale of 150:1. To improve the simulation accuracy of thin layer oil reservoir, we have attached geological model (GM). Oil sand was simulated by using a mixture of extra heavy oil and glass beads with a diameter of 1.5 mm. $CO_2$ was used as an additive and the evolution of steam chambers were closely monitored, and the effects of $CO_2$ as an additive was investigated. Two types of injection methods were tested; continuous ($cCO_2$-SAGD) and sequential interruption ($sCO_2$-SAGD) $CO_2$ injection. For the $sCO_2$-SAGD experiment, it was observed that the recovery rates and CSOR were efficiently improved control experiment from 60.2% to 69.3% and 7.1 to 6.0, respectively, whereas $cCO_2$-SAGD experiment decreased from 60.2% to 57.6% and 7.1 to 7.3.

Four species of water fleas (Daphnia magna, Daphnia pulex, Daphnia galeata, and Moina macrocopa) were examined for the clarification of their reproduction with culture conditions. The reproduction tests of water flea by the culture conditions were carried out. For the comparison of the reproduction rate, five media (manure-soil medium, DIN medium, M4 medium, EPA medium, fertilizer medium) were applied to determine the best medium. Daphnia magna, Daphnia pulex, and Moina macrocopa were appeared the best reproduction in the manure-soil medium at $20^{\circ}C.$ The lifespan and young reproduction were better in manure-soil medium than the others. But Daphnia galeata was lived for 34 days in the fertilizer medium at $20^{\circ}C.$ The culture of Daphnia galeata was difficult to rear than the other species. In the current study, the microcystin of Microcystis sp. did not particularly affect on the survival of water fleas. But the lifespan was short and the reproduction rate was low. Therefore water flea have a preference for Scenedesmus sp. than Microcystis sp. On the condition of the feeding Scenedesmus sp., all examined water fleas appeared to have the longest lifespan and the most young water fleas produced at any medium and temperature as compared with the feeding the Microcystis sp. For the culture temperature, the lifespan was longer on $20^{\circ}C$ than $15^{\circ}C$.

Phytoplankton community is one of the important factors for the management of aquatic environment due to generation of varying toxins by harmful algal species. This study was performed to examine the phytoplankton community structure (PCS) in the midstream of Geum River (GR) from January 2014 to December 2015. The water sampling was performed in five stations on 2014, and three stations on 2015. Subsequently, the morphological identification was performed by microscopic observation in laboratory condition. As results, total 265 species were identified and it was comprised of 40.8% of Bacillariophyceae, 9.1% of Cyanophyceae, 44.5% of Chlorophyceae, and the others (4.9%). During the investigation period, total average standing crop of phytoplankton was $12,948cells\;mL^{-1}$, and it was comprised of $7,702cells\;mL^{-1}$ of Bacillariophyceae, $2,821cells\;mL^{-1}$ of Cyanophyceae, $2,121cells\;mL^{-1}$ of Chlorophyceae, and $305cells\;mL^{-1}$ of others. To verify which tributaries of upstream area influence on PCS of midstream of GR, the phytoplankton standing crops of two stations including Mihocheon (MH) and Gapcheon (GC) were examined on 2014, and compared to result of on 2015. The results were shown that the MH station had more similar phytoplankton standing crops with midstream of GR than GC station. The relationship between environmental parameters and phytoplankton dynamics was studied at the investigated station. As results, whereas water temperature and total phosphorus were represented the positive correlation, N/P ratio was remarkably exhibited negative correlation. From the results, it is suggested that the PCS of midstream of GR was more affected by MH station than GC station, and the changes of temperature, phosphorus concentration, and N/P ratio may be important factors on the PCS formation of midstream of GR.

In order to find out the effect of supplemented diets with squid intestine on the catfish, growth and body compositions of catfish (Parasilurus asotus) were investigated for 112 days with the four experimental diets of different lipid levels. The higher lipid level of diets with squid intestine supplement was fed, the higher body weight was gained (p<0.05). HSI (Hepatosomatic Index) was the lowest in the diets with $10\%$ squid intestine. There were no significant differences in muscle md skin compositions, however the increasing lipid levels in the diets well reflected in the fatty acid pattern of skin and muscle. The percentage of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids such as C20 : 5 and C22 : 6 in tissues was increased according to increase of supplemented squid intestine. Saturated and n-6 fatty acid contents did not show the significant difference.

To treat non-point source pollution in Juam lake, removal efficiencies of pollutants were investigated in Bongsan constructed wetlands (CWs) at different treatment time, stages and wastewater loads. The constructed wetlands consisted of forebay, $1^{st}$ and $2^{nd}$ wetlands. The concentrations of BOD, SS, T-N, and T-P in inflow were $1.87mg\;L^{-1}$, $1.62mg\;L^{-1}$, $11.47mg\;L^{-1}$, and $4.40mg\;L^{-1}$, respectively. The removal rates of BOD, SS, T-N, and T-P in Bongsan CWs were 26, 18, 16 and 9%, respectively. The removal rates of BOD and T-N were higher than those for SS and T-P. The amounts of pollutant removal in Bongsan CWs were higher in the order of forebay > $1^{st}$ wetland > $2^{nd}$ wetland for BOD, forebay > $2^{nd}$ wetland > $1^{st}$ wetland for SS, $1^{st}$ wetland > forebay > $2^{nd}$ wetland for T-N and $2^{nd}$ wetland > forebay > $1^{st}$ wetland for T-P.
